    );
    has duration => (

        isa => ISO8601TimeDurationStr,
        coerce => 1,
    );
    Class−>new( datetime => '2012−01−01T00:00:00' );
    Class−>new( duration => 60 ); # 60s => PT00H01M00S

DESCRIPTION

This module packages several TypeConstraints with coercions for working with ISO8601 date strings and the DateTime suite of objects.

DATE CONSTRAINTS

ISO8601DateStr
An ISO8601 date string. E.g. "2009−06−11"

ISO8601TimeStr
An ISO8601 time string. E.g. "12:06:34Z"

ISO8601DateTimeStr
An ISO8601 combined datetime string. E.g. "2009−06−11T12:06:34Z"

ISO8601DateTimeTZStr
An ISO8601 combined datetime string with a fully specified timezone. E.g. "2009−06−11T12:06:34+00:00"

ISO8601StrictDateStr
ISO8601StrictTimeStr
ISO8601StrictDateTimeStr
ISO8601StrictDateTimeTZStr

As above, only in addition to validating the strings against regular expressions, an attempt is made to actually parse the data into a DateTime object. This will catch cases like "2013−02−31" which look correct but do not correspond to real-world values. Note that this bears a computation penalty.

COERCIONS
The date types will coerce from:
" Num "

The number is treated as a time in seconds since the unix epoch

" DateTime "

The duration represented as a DateTime object.

" Str "

Non-expanded date and time string representations.

e.g.:−

20120113 => 2012−01−13 170500Z => 17:05:00Z 20120113T170500Z => 2012−01−13T17:05:00Z

Representations of UTC time zone (only an offset of zero is supported)

e.g.:−

17:05:00+00:00 => 17:05:00Z 17:05:00+00 => 17:05:00Z 170500+0000 => 17:05:00Z

2012−01−13T17:05:00+00:00 => 2012−01−13T17:05:00Z 2012−01−13T17:05:00+00 => 2012−01−13T17:05:00Z 20120113T170500+0000 => 2012−01−13T17:05:00Z

Also supports non-standards mixing of expanded and non-expanded representations

e.g.:−

2012−01−13T170500Z => 2012−01−13T17:05:00Z 20120113T17:05:00Z => 2012−01−13T17:05:00Z

In addition, there are coercions from these string types to DateTime.

DURATION CONSTRAINTS

ISO8601DateDurationStr
An ISO8601 date duration string. E.g. "P01Y01M01D"

ISO8601TimeDurationStr
An ISO8601 time duration string. E.g. "PT01H01M01S"

ISO8601DateTimeDurationStr
An ISO8601 combined date and time duration string. E.g. "P01Y01M01DT01H01M01S"

COERCIONS
The duration types will coerce from:
" Num "

The number is treated as a time in seconds

" DateTime::Duration "

The duration represented as a DateTime::Duration object.

The duration types will coerce to:
" Duration "

A DateTime::Duration, i.e. the " Duration " constraint from MooseX::Types::DateTime.

FEATURES

Fractional seconds
If provided, the number of seconds in time types is represented to microsecond accuracy. A full stop character is used as the decimal separator, which is allowed, but deprecated in preference to the comma character in ISO 8601:2004 .

BUGS

Probably full of them, patches are very welcome.

Specifically missing features:

No timezone support − all times are assumed UTC

No week number type

"Basic format", which lacks separator characters, is not supported for reading or writing.

Tests are rubbish.
